Week 13

Besides the fact that it is starting to get super cold here, not a lot happened in the last week. We had some nice social visits with other surrogacy clients who all enjoyed the pure chubbiness of Cailyns' little legs.
Cailyn eats, poops, sleeps and has very impressive social skills. She lets anyone hold her and always has a smile (except when she feels the fussiness of spit up making its way up her esphogus). She has discovered television! Oh ..not good. She will turn her neck in true exorcist fashion to watch it, and has even given me the business when I turned her away from it! Time to nip that in the bud!
Cailyn gets very excited when Mark comes home from work. At that time, for about one hour, mommy no longer exists. It is really adorable to watch her coo over her daddy. All of this is exactly what we have wanted for all these years. Life is good with Cailyn in it!

Sometimes she eats in her bathrobe!

Look at those arms!!! Looks like she may be strawberry blonde.

The shirt was given to us by Lara and Posh while in India. It is just so adorable (and almost too small now)!!

Daddy and his girl chillaxing. Notice the tarp like bib on her to catch the pools of spit up!

Adorable in the bathrobe! I know about the television! Not a good thing! My dad likes to put Orion on his knee in front of it but I don't want him watching it at all... except for maybe the odd disney movie or 2... like winnie the pooh :)
